Recall details

Recalling firm

Reason for recall
Potential safety issue when using the IMMEDIATE RESUMPTION feature after a Control Console interlock during the delivery of flattening-filter-free (Multiple-X) beams or segments. In a very rare scenario, the RT Therapist will send again the previously completed beam or segment for delivery to the control console, thus repeating the already delivered Monitor Units of the same beam or segment.
Action taken
The firm issued "Urgent: Medical Device Correction" letters delivered by the Siemens Customer Service Group or by certified mail to all its direct consignees, informing them of the affected product and providing instructions on the recall. The firm stated that release of this UI TH018/12/S to distribute the notifications began on June 25, 2012.
